Original Sauce
Colin T.

I ordered takeout from City Barbecue for Father's Day. I ordered the Two Meats/Two Sides meal. Specifically, the smoked sausage, pulled pork, green beans, and cole slaw. The order came with a slice of Texas toast topped with garlic butter. There also was a packet of utensils and a cup of their barbecue sauce. The pulled pork was probably the best item. It was tender and tasted good but didn't have any particular smoke flavor to me. With the addition of the barbecue sauce, I really liked it. However, it seemed like a relatively small portion. The sausage had a firm casing and tasted good although again I'm didn't detect much of a smoked flavor. I added mustard to mine. The green beans were well cooked, which I appreciate and didn't require additional salt. The cole slaw was nice and creamy but did have a few chucks of cabbage that could've been chopped better. Everything was packaged together carefully and placed in a plastic bag. The sausage, pulled pork and Texas toast came in a plastic container that said it was microwaveable. The green beans and cole slaw came in styrofoam cups. Overall, I would give this establishment three stars. The food was good but nothing spectacular. Prices were reasonable and they did package everything very well. If I come here again, I will most likely opt for the pulled pork only. I liked it the best and wish the combo meal had came with more.

A good local place. One the best chicken sandwiches around Dayton. Be careful it's spicy. The pulled chicken sandwich didn't have anything in it. But the sauces were good. The sides hush puppies, coleslaw and Mac and cheese. All of them were good. Haven't tried the BBQ yet.

Not really true BBQ. Food is always cold and sides are so so. Would not recommend. You can make better bbq at home.

Really good! Good bang for your buck! The Apple BBQ sauce they have is a limited offering but I hope they make it available full time.

The pulled pork was so dry, I wouldn't have been able to eat it without lots of barbecue sauce.

I recently placed a DoorDash order at Doubleday's Home Plate…read more Doubleday's Home Plate offers a variety of food options. I elected to get the Ooey Gooey Smashburger and an order of fries. The smashburger consists of two smash hamburger patties topped with American cheese with cheese sauce between the patties. I added pickles on my sandwich. The burger was cooked well, in the typical smashburger style, and was very cheesy and delicious. The fries were good. The order came in a plastic container. Not quite eco-friendly but it kept the food warm and fresh. I highly recommend this establishment. My order was filled quickly and my DoorDasher delivered the order quickly. I like having different dining options and this is one place I do intend on visiting again.

I want to say that when this place opened that it was a good go to for food. The burgers and fish…read morewere great. Well, like everything these days, a good concept was ruined. Now, they are basically based at The Famous restaurant which too has gone down hill in quality of food. I had made an order last night after long day of work (work a hour away), and the order was wrong and high priced for the portions. The fish was not a good portion like it was previous and did not even give me tartar sauce with fish. I was not aware of change of location to Famous Restaurant until I made the order and had to drive out of my way after long day at work. Management had refunded me money which was appreciated, but I would say that maybe they should just add this menu to The Famous Menu or to the Doubleday locations and close the doors and concept of this restaurant.

Walked in to black water all over the floor - not sure what that was, but a slipping hazard for sure. Temperature inside about 50 degrees fahrenheit. The only thing worse than the conditions in the lobby was the "Jamaican Jokester" at the register. It took about 8 tries for him to get our order into the register correctly, thinking he was funny all along the way. I wasn't laughing. I requested salt-free fries to prevent the obviously cold fries on the counter from being served to me. He explained the furnace was off due to "carbon monoxide in the building." Shoulda left, but placed order. I sent wife to the car with kids while I waited on the food ... certainly not going to eat in the restaurant in those temperatures. Took our order home. All 4 sandwiches were wrong. Fries were cold by then. The only thing right was the large chili. Even the crackers were all crumbled. Total, unmitigated disaster. Ruined our little lunch celebration with our grandson. McDonalds right across the street - was very mad at myself for not going there to begin with. About my 6th visit to this location. It will be my last, 100%.

The Classic Smash Burger consists of two all beef patties on a sesame seed bun. The burger was cooked very well, was cheesy and very flavorful! The fries were seasoned well and are shoestring style. They were good. Not too oily and very plentiful. The chipotle ketchup was okay but not really what I was expecting. It is a bit spicy, perhaps too much to my liking, but I am sure many people would enjoy it. Everything was carefully placed in a nice cardboard box lined with brown paper and sealed. The order itself was placed in a brown paper bag. I do recommend. Food is good, plentiful, and a decent value compared to other chain type restaurants! I would go again as they have a pretty decent selection of food and this experience was good. Recommended!
